One Nation One Card: All you need to know

India

Under the scheme, an indigenously-developed, inter-operable transport card called National Common Mobility Card (NCMC) powered by RuPay, was announced.

The card can be used to make payments across all public transport departments, viz. city buses, metro, suburban railways etc.

In PM's words

Here's what the Prime Minister said

The NCMC was launched during the inauguration of the first phase of the Ahmedabad Metro rail service.

According to PM Modi, "This card runs on RuPay and it will eliminate all your travel-related problems. Many a times, we do not have cash change while traveling in metro, bus or train, or for toll and parking. To overcome this issue, an automatic fare collection system was introduced."

Aim

The move unifies travel payments across the country

"Since (earlier) systems were made by different players, a card issued in one city did not work in another. Thus, we asked various ministries, departments and even banks to resolve this issue."

"Now, we have this 'Made in India' card. Only a select few countries have this technology of One Nation One Card," said the Prime Minister.
